New Quick Start deploys a VFX burst rendering framework based on ISE recommendations on AWS

Posted on: Apr 3, 2019

This Quick Start deploys an example Linux architecture for visual effects (VFX) burst rendering on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud, using content security recommendations from Independent Security Evaluators (ISE) and AWS.

The Quick Start can be used by VFX studios that are new to burst rendering on AWS, or by VFX studios that are already using burst rendering on AWS and require further guidance on securing their VFX burst rendering environment. The Quick Start includes a security control mapping document that provides VFX studios with the guidance needed to demonstrate, document, and prepare the VFX burst rendering environment for an ISE security audit.

The deployment is automated by AWS CloudFormation templates that build the burst rendering framework in about 10 minutes in your AWS account. After you deploy the Quick Start, you can install your custom VFX applications into the provisioned architecture and integrate the architecture with your on-premises environment.

To get started:

You can also download the AWS CloudFormation templates that automate the deployment from GitHub.
